#630  The Fancy Superior grade is bestowed only upon exquisite, tippy teas such as the Taifu. Known as “Five Color Tea,” northern Taiwanese oolongs are oxidized around 60% and take on various hues of brown—from beige to sienna. Its classic earthy flavor has a lingering bite but without the astringency found in some black teas. It is smooth but bold. Infuse multiple times.

Preparation: 3 g tea leaves (2 heaping teaspoons) per 8 oz cup of filtered boiling water. Allow to brew 4 min.
